Corn is uesd to feed the animals that produce meat(protein). Thus, China is in much more need of corn.......more than they can produce on their own.

One of the reasons corn is over 6.00 per bu. currently.

China blocks 700 Forums.

The watchdog group Reporters Without Borders ranks China 163 out of 168 countries in its 2007 index of press freedom - a grotesque status for a Great Power with the prospect of being the superpower of the 21st century. Chinese authorities censor Internet use and in the first half of last year shut down 700 online forums. The Government controls the media in China, and in August of last year China passed an Emergency Response Law which bans the spread of "unverified information" regarding riots, disasters and other emergencies. Journalists who have been critical of the Chinese Communist Party have been jailed, and China's own Peoples' Daily said in a 2005 report that 338 publications were shut down for printing "internal" information. China leads the world in the number of imprisoned journalists, and has had that record for nine years running.
